Want to do most of them

SW4 was shit when I went though.

Oh and audio river for 15 EUR makes me feel sick living in this massively over-priced country

Another festival they miss out is Shambhala in Western Canada. It's gotta be one of the best breaks festivals around, not to mention that the stages and the land around it are just fantastic.

If you're into breakbeats, you should consider checking it out sometime...

The Big Chill should be in the list, top line up this year, Trentemoller, Flying lotus, Ame, Luke Vibert, The Mighty Boosh, Fat Freddys Drop, Quiet Village are just a few of the names playing.

Nah. Big chill is too chilled. I think its a good family festival, when you know, you've got a family and that.

yeah i'd agree, i thought it was a bit too tame when I went. felt a bit out of place tripping my nuts off...

Also trentemoller live isn't nearly as killer as his tunes (i think)

I went pigeon shooting in a field next to the Big Chill yesterday. Shot 91.

I saw 3 rainbows on top of each other and a seagul attacking a buzzard. Very interesting.

Voltt: 2 years voltt has been enough for me. the line up isn't that spectacular.

pukkelpop is amazing. one of my top 10 best festivals ever. only - point is the lack choise for drinks maybe it's improved but we could only order beer, white wine, cola and water.

sonnemond: since 4 years i'm going again. alone :( because none of my freinds wanted to go. but this was big on my whislist so it's going to be a blast!

c/o pop only been a few days to this festival and the days i were there were great.

other good festivals missing from the list.
N1 maybe a bit big but leading
lowlands amazing combination of movies, dance & rock
mystery land: fairytale location, most beautifull location in the netherlands. but a bit to many deejays forced in all the stages & short time. they should be ashamed of letting richie hawtin play less then 2 hours :S

Was reading about SW4 here, www.spoonfed.co.uk/london/event/south-west-four-102448/
Does sound good, but just could be pretty mainstream and predictable?
What do people think?

No i'm just giving my blunt opinion as usual. It just depends what you like and who you're with etc. It doesn't interest me cos its a bit commercial, but that doesn't mean you wont like it.
